Hey, what is "Add New Items At End of List" supposed to do? Because it doesn't put anything at the bottom for me. In "dual pane" mode and "list view", If I copy or move a file over from the second pane to the first, it still gets autosorted into alphabetical order. It does not matter if I turn off Auto Refresh, because if I do that, the file won't even show that it's been moved until I hit Refresh. If I hit refresh, it's also going to sort the files alphabetically.

old post discussing the same from 2018: viewtopic.php?t=21984

original post in 2015 from Admin who said he saw no way to change it. But that was with visual basic, right? Can twinBasic get this fixed?

I do like very much how at least xyplorer selects and highlights the file after it's auto sorted after I move it, though. That does make it easier to find in a very long list.

Also, I have a .bat script that changes this in the registry in MS Explorer. It makes no difference in XYplorer, of course. But is it possible for you to make a script to change it in the registry?

New items here refers to newly created items, e.g. by Edit | New | New Text File "New Text File.txt".
